Nature
A Ballad of Fair Ladies in Revolt: XXXIX
From Poems — Volume 2
Nature
—Look, lady, where yon river winds its line
Toward sunset, and receives on breast and face
The splendour of fair life: to be divine,
’Tis nature bids you be to nature true,
Flowing with beauty, lending earth your grace,
Reflecting heaven in clearness you.
